Details: The Ukrainian president expressed his gratitude to Hunt for the largest defence aid package from the UK, worth about £500,000.

"We paid special attention to the sanction policy. It is important to extend restrictive measures against Russia and make the circumvention of sanctions impossible," Zelenskyy tweeted.

"I thank the people, the Government, the Prime Minister, and the Parliament of the United Kingdom for their support of Ukraine since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion. We highly value our countries’ partnership," he added.

Hunt will also meet with Ukraine's Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and other ministers later on Thursday.
